Libraries, further provides for the appointment of local library boards

This bill amends existing law regarding county and municipal library boards in Alabama. It clarifies that members of these local and joint library boards serve at the pleasure of their appointing authority and can be removed by a two-thirds vote of that authority. The bill also requires local library boards to submit annual reports to the Governor, Speaker of the House, and President Pro Tempore of the Senate, detailing board membership and any actions taken regarding the review or removal of collection items. Additionally, it mandates that appointing authorities ensure diversity among board members.
